Beijing time June 24 Morning News, the U.S. Science and Technology blog AllThingsD quoted sources as saying, Microsoft CEO Ballmer (Steve Ballmer) is likely to be on July 1 for Microsoft executives announced his restructuring of Microsoft's plan.

Several sources said Microsoft executives were uneasy about Mr Ballmer's restructuring plan, as Mr. Ballmer did not extensively solicit the views of Microsoft executives in his restructuring plan. Mr. Ballmer only discussed with some of his direct subordinates, as well as members of the Microsoft Board.

This means that many executives are excluded from Ballmer's decision-making process. In an e-mail to shareholders last October, Mr Ballmer said Microsoft wanted to transform itself into a "device and service" company. Rumours of the adjustment and the opacity of the information have caused some dissatisfaction within Microsoft, and many of the executives have been at Microsoft for a very long time.

One source said: "The restructuring is a feeling of scale, and this is the adjustment that Ballmer made for his legacy." It is also the first time in a long period that Microsoft will make major adjustments, including the departure of some people. ”

Under Ballmer's leadership, Stephen Sinnowski, Microsoft's Windows Business director, left Sinofsky last year. Microsoft also had an important reorganization in 2008. Other Microsoft executives who have left the company in the past few years include Kevin Johnson, the incumbent of Microsoft's 16 Juniper CEO, Kevin, who joined Microsoft in 1981 and currently serves as the CEO of the Bill and Melinda Melinda Foundation Jeff Rex (Jeff Raikes); Robbie Bach (Robbie Bach), who works for Microsoft in 22 and 2010, and Microsoft's 15 J. Arad (J Allard), he still serves as a consultant to Mr. Ballmer.

But most of these personnel adjustments are one-off. Under Ballmer's leadership, Microsoft did not have a major restructuring similar to Bill Gates's period.

Sources said there had been a surge of speculation inside Microsoft about the reorganization, but no real action was announced. "If Ballmer ends up doing nothing, it would be very funny," said one source. But no one now thinks that Ballmer will. A Microsoft spokeswoman declined to comment on the news.

Under the new organizational structure, some Microsoft executives will play a more important role and Microsoft's business will be restructured into a new department, according to several sources. The source pointed out that some heavyweight figures would leave.

Among the top executives within Microsoft are the servers and Tools division President Seia Nadra (Satya Nadella), Skype's President Tony Betz (Tony Bates) and the President Tang Matrick of Interactive Entertainment, Don Mattrick. In addition, many people believe that the role of Microsoft's Online services business President Lurkey and Windows Phone Business President Trie Meiersen (Terry myerson) will change.

It is not clear what the new positions of these executives will be, and whether other executives will leave. Mr. Ballmer may be evaluating this. Several sources believe Mr. Ballmer will soon announce his plan within Microsoft, before the end of Microsoft's fiscal year. It is unclear when Microsoft will release the plan.

To be sure, this simplification will help clarify Microsoft's current complex organizational structure, and how Microsoft's flagship product, Windows, fits into the new architecture will be the most interesting.

Investors are pressing Microsoft. Microsoft's share price has recently risen, and some activist investors are urging Microsoft to adjust to some degree. Microsoft will hold a build developer conference in San Francisco this week to showcase a series of new developments on Windows, Bing and server products.
